To bad they didn't hear about Loops. I don't use this stuff so I have no idea if it's good or not, but it's not Chinese or collecting your data so it would be worth a try. Although if 400k users flooded it I have serious doubts they could scale to meet a demand like that.

Loops is unfortunately not ready for 70 million new users.

The scalability is my concern too. It took me like 8 days after I signed up before I got my login to Loops.

Gotta say I really like it, though

I signed for loops for awhile. Still no account.

It was waitlist for a while, not sure if it still is but I got my welcome email like a week later.

I was able to make my account immediately, just this morning. Not on Google Play yet though, had to download the apk manually.

How long did you wait? I submitted for an account a few days ago. Not even a confirmation email saying anything.

[–] STUNT_GRANNY@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No waiting; the email was in my inbox as soon as I applied.

Hm... Let me try again maybe with a different email.
